DES522 – Shaft Wall Solutions for Wood-Frame Structures
Credit: 1 AIA LU/HSW, 0.1 ICC CEU
Commercial and multifamily buildings are often built using light wood frame construction but sometimes another material is used for the shaft construction. However, light wood frame or mass timber construction may be used for the shaft walls to provide a code-compliant solution which can reduce cost and shorten construction schedule. In this presentation, detailing for elevator, stair and mechanical shafts will be discussed along with relevant code provisions. Discussion will focus on fire resistance-rated design parameters but will also include other architectural and structural considerations related to shaft walls. Code provisions of the 2012 to 2018 International Building Code are applicable.
